Lama Surya Das

    Lama Surya Das is een van de vooraanstaande westerse leraren en geleerden van de boeddhistische meditatie, die de diepe Tibetaans-boeddhistische wijsheid naar de westerse wereld brengt. Met meer dan veertig jaar toegewijde studie van Zen, Vipassana, yoga en Tibetaans boeddhisme onder Aziatische meesters, is hij een van de belangrijkste vertolkers van deze tradities in Amerika. Zijn geschriften begeleiden lezers naar het ontwaken van innerlijke wijsheid, de integratie van liefde en verbinding in het dagelijks leven, en het overstijgen van de illusie van afscheiding. Als oprichter van het Dzogchen Center neemt hij ook actief deel aan interreligieuze dialogen en promoot hij contemplatief onderwijs voor jongeren.

    • What did the Dalai Lama say to the hot dog vendor? "Make me one with everything!" It's a familiar joke, muses Lama Surya Das, and one that holds a profound truth: that in addition to inner peace, meditation is a path for all-inclusive connection. In Make Me One with Everything, he invites us to experience this through the art of inter-meditation and other original practices that allow us to see through the illusion of separation. "If you've ever felt 'at one' with something-your beloved or your child, a forest trail or a favorite song-then you've experienced inter-meditation," explains Lama Surya Das. Based on Tibetan Buddhism's core insights into the inherent essence of who we are, these teachings of shared spirituality offer both new and experienced meditators a better way to live-not just on the meditation cushion or the yoga mat, but in every moment of their lives.

      We're all given the same twenty-four hours a day. We can spend our time feeling hurried and harried, overwhelmed by chores and demands, distracted and burned out . . . or we can awaken to Buddha Standard Time, the realm of timelessness where every choice, every action, and every breath can be one of renewal and infinite possibilities. Buddha Standard Time shares one of the great realizations of Buddhism, an insight that anyone can learn to apply. The minutes and hours of our days do not simply march from future to present to past. Rather, each moment is intersected by a fourth dimension. By learning to live in this dimension—Buddha Standard Time—we reduce the amount of stress in our lives and find greater focus, fulfillment, creativity, and even wisdom. Drawing on Tibetan Buddhism and other great wisdom traditions, as well as on neuroscience and holistic traditions, renowned teacher and national bestselling author Lama Surya Das shares real world examples, practical exercises, and essential techniques. The pace and pressure of today's world feels relentless. That is why, now more than ever, we need the ancient wisdom contained in Buddha Standard Time. Far from being at the mercy of time's demands, we will finally realize that we have, in fact, all the time in the world.
